***Official 2025 NCAA Tournament Thread***

If Drake beats Missouri, I’ll be very happy since it will be another SEC team biting the dust.

F the SEC.

 

[FerShizzle]

Every game Drake wins in the tournament, the less likely Iowa will get McCollum. He'll be too high on everyone's list for Iowa to beat the competition.

And it’s one less SEC team in the tourney if they win tonight.

 

[Pope]

He will absolutely be WVU's #1 target. If McCasland ends up in Austin, Texas Tech will want him. Iowa's best shot was getting him locked down before the tournament. Who knows? Maybe they did.

I'm not sure. WVU probably has a very bad taste in their mouth when it comes to hiring Drake coaches. That said, they'd be smart to hire McCollum.

 

[Die4Cy]

Pretty disciplined of Drake to pull down an open offensive rebound and instead of shooting the three footer, pull it back out for another shot clock drain.

Stirtz would look really good in a cyclone uniform

I've been thinking that all night. I bet TJ would salivate at the thought of adding him to the roster. I'm afraid his price is rising too high for us, though.

Wishful thinking

Clinic by Drake so far.

Gotta hand it to them, just everything going there way

Stirtz said his team is playing "ok"

I thought McCollum and the athletics director at WVU had overlapped at NWMSU and had a prior working relationship.

Come on wooford make this a game down the stretch

 

[FallOf81]

How much do you pay these guys in Kansas per rebound

Great point!

 

[Cyched]

Not really cheering for anyone, but KU winning would be nice if only to knock another SEC team out.

KU can lose to St Johns next game.

Stirtz said his team is playing "ok"

I like that attitude. They are playing ok, threw the ball away a lot, but were super consistent on def and on the boards.

 

[Pope]

If Iowa was smart, they'd wait a little bit and hire away whoever Drake ends up offering. At least then they'd know they were getting a pretty good coach, and they'd get him before he blows up and becomes out of reach.

 

[CYedUp]

Man ku sucks

The words prior to the comma say it all

 

[1TwistedCyclone]

Wishful thinking, but I hope McCollum stays another year at Drake. I know, I know; money, money, money.

 

[FallOf81]

KU much better without the huge white teletubby
